Gilles doesn't work for  a bank. He orders bricks of every denomination. There are a few people who buy bricks of 20's including myself but I don't get too many. You can order 20's thru your bank and you will probably get them in a few days.

Gilles does not use the Internet.  The only way of contacting him is by telephone or snail mail.  I do not have his contact information.  If you want bricks, contact your bank.  Be prepared for a great deal of resistance though, because from what I understand, few banks enjoy dealing with new notes.

Someone I know orders bricks fairly regularly and simply goes around town stuffing ATMs with envelopes of new notes. A few envelopes per machine is usually enough. Spread them around, and that should work for you. Just don't flood any particular branch over a short period of time, especially the one that gets you the bricks. Something else I enjoy doing... spend ONLY brand new notes. When paying for something, pull out a bundle and flick a few notes off the top to make your purchase. Customers behind you in line, and the cashiers often get some interesting looks on their faces. One cashier I did this to even spent a good two minutes or so checking the note under UV, etc until he convinced himself they were real. ;D Oh the joys of being a weird paper money collector!
